I just read this post and it has some interesting things to say. https://forums.studentfilmmakers.com/threads/3949/ 1. A script. Where do they come from? They come from ideas. Where do ideas come from? Try comic books. Tales From The Crypt is great. The local newspaper often has good story ideas. Go to the local coffee house and eavesdrop. People talk about fascinating situations all the time; they just don't seem that fascinating till you need ideas for a film. Or, you know what? Just steal an idea from your favorite TV show, and modify it to make it yours. Nobody's gonna see your first film anyway. This one's just to get your chops. (The next ten or twenty will be too, but don't worry about that for now.)
